Drummuir Walled Garden is an idyllic organic public garden nestled in the hills around Drummuir with a little farm shop selling organic home grown seasonal produce also selling free range meats from our sister farm in Glenlivet. In the garden we have lots of different animals from chickens to Rhea and Soay sheep. We host a range of different events at the garden and are also available as a wedding venue. We always welcome people to take a stroll round the garden completely free and relaxed.

New Arrivals...
We've been very fortunate and our four soay sheep have given birth to six little bundles of fun!
Maisy, Lambikans,Tulip and Angharad all gave birth at the end of May.
All four ewes shortly before they gave birth. |
Unfortunately Tulips couldn't handle both twins and so we had to take the smallest and weakest lamb away from her to bottle feed.
The lamb we've named 'Socks' (due to the fact she has four uncommon white socks when most soay sheep are all brown) is doing very well. She's still small but she's feisty. She runs around the garden freely with the dogs and follows everyone about. She's very cuddly and loving!
If you come the garden now you'll be able to see all the lambs playing together in the field and you might even be able to bottle feed socks!
